Re: [orca-list] software x is inaccessible

Hello,
As already mentioned, only apps using gtk2 are accessible currently.

Regarding making skype accessible, there are other VOIP software available
for Linux which are accessible, but occasionally you find you have freinds
who use windows and just use skype, so yes you may still have a need for
skype. There is very little that can be done by the end user for skype, it
will require the skype developers to make a gtk front-end, but that probably
isn't high on their list of things to do. So what other options? I remember
reading at the skype website, there is a API to skype, it requires skype to
be running, but may be it might be possible to make a accessible client for
skype using the API and connecting through the standard client (I don't know
how far the API extends in functions to operate all features). Sounds a bit
clumbsy, it is, but there aren't really many other options if you must use
skype.

If you or anyone else makes such a client for skype, it would be good if it
was open source.
